New Delhi: India and China are preparing modern weapons systems in the wake of border tensions. China has deployed missiles capable of hitting targets up to 2,000 km and surface-to-air missiles in Xinjiang and Tibet. In return, India has developed BrahMos, fearless, ground-to-air missiles.
The Brahmos range is 500 km, while the Nirbhaya range is 800 km. The sky can intercept enemy targets at a distance of 40 km. China has deployed its weapons systems not only in the occupied Aksai Chin region, but also in the Kasghar, Hotan, Lhasa, Ningchi, etc. along the Line of Control. The most powerful BrahMos missile capable of striking targets from the sky to the ground and from the ground to the ground can carry a warhead of 300 km.
The BrahMos missile could target Chinese air bases in Tibet and Xinjiang. India has enough of these missiles at Ladakh. It can be launched from a SU30 MKI fighter jet. It can also be launched from the Indian Air Force base on the island of Car Nicobar in the Indian Ocean. BrahMos and fearless missiles can be launched from an air base in Carnicobar to effectively counter Chinese warships from the Straits of Malacca or the Strait of Sunda.
At present, India has a limited number of fearless missiles. The fearless missile can only strike targets from the ground to the ground. India has also deployed the required number of anti-aircraft missiles in the Ladakh region. The missile, which strikes targets from the ground to the sky, can target Chinese aircraft crossing the de facto line. Radar in the air missile can detect 64 targets simultaneously. It can attack 12 targets. Can shoot down enemy warplanes, cruise missiles and ballistic missiles in the sky. Chinese Air Force operations in the Aksai Chin area have declined somewhat in recent years, but have increased in the Daulat Beg Oldi area near the Karakoram Pass.
